In this episode of Restorative Talks, Micah sits down with Dr. Dale Schusterman. They talk about a breathing exercise that balances the hemispheres in your brain and balancing the body through frequency.
Show Notes
Frequency
- Dr. June Wieder, a chiropractor in California did a lot of research on using tuning forks on the spine
- She found 12 frequencies, and each frequency resonates with 2 vertebrae
- “Frequency is medicine” – Dr. Dale
- Looking at heart frequency, brain frequency, gut behavior, it’s all so aligned
- Tuning forks are readily available for people to try at home
- Dr. Dale says that when he muscle tests people, you could bring up trauma from 9 years ago
- Everyone needs to get reset from time to time, a good massage helps, the neuro-field is great
Breathing Technique
- Alternate Nostril Breathing
- Use the thumb for the right nostril, and the ring/middle finger to cover the left nostril
- You breathe back and forth, holding one nostril (left) and breathing in, and then exhaling out of the left nostril while holding the other (right)
- Then you rotate that pattern
- It balances the heart to the brain, it’s a good way of centering and calming
- Holotropic breathwork can arise emotions very quickly
- Guides and sitters are recommended for Holotropic breathwork
Healing
- When asking the body what is wrong, you have to be specific to produce healing
- People are a lot more open to suggestion when they aren’t in pain
Parasympathetic Protocol
- Dr. Dale uses it for chilling people out or helping people sleep
- Flow has a lot to do with the parasympathetic system
- ‘Rest and Digest’ is very parasympathetic
- A lot of people are in a loop of not knowing an answer of when they will feel safe again, and using the parasympathetic protocol is super helpful
“When you start bringing balance in the body, then it frees the mind” – Dr. Dale
Final Thoughts
- International College of Applied Kinesiology
- P-DTR (proprioceptive deep tendon reflex)
- A neurological way of balancing the body
